PIctures? Reports? The rain (well, the forecast for everywhere and the rain in chicago) kept me from driving the car on Saturday, so I done missed it again.

I tried to make up for it by taking it for a long drive on Sunday.

A Thema....that's interesting. Especially if it's a V8!

FUN was FANTASTIC. Great folks, food, lodging and cruising.
There was virtually no rain on Saturday. Just a couple sprinkles.

Sharron and I just got home about an hour ago. Drove back to MI via the UP.
42 degrees and top down on Monday morning from Escanaba to Harbor Springs.

The Thema has a Ferrari 308 in it. What a fun car to drive... yes Paul let me drive it.

There are some pictures already posted at:

Stayed tuned for details about FUN 2010. FUN will be back in West Michigan then.

Damn! Knew that would happen. It rained heavily here.

Going climbing in WI this weekend and I waaant to drive the Spider, but highs in the low 40s are working against it. I've done top-down in those temps before, but it was in a new car with a windblocker and a great heater. And for 45 minutes. 3 hours @ 40F is something else. Well, at least next year I won't miss any dirving opportunities for dumb reasons like this year.
